Enemies to Lovers | Joshua Kyan Aalampour

This is an orchestral waltz I composed in February of 2022. The original story behind this piece was that I was contacted to score an indie video game in late 2021. The video game developer sent me concept art of mystical castles as inspiration. I procrastinated writing anything for months until I realized I had to send something. So I stayed up one night and ended up composing most of what became "Enemies to Lovers". I was going to send it to the game developer but I thought it sounded too good to just be known as a secondary piece of work, so I ended up ghosting the developer and publishing this separately (sorry Jus!)
This is one of my most successful pieces to date, and the titling of it came with the help of my TikTok comments section. I hope you enjoy!

I reversed it, so it became from lovers to enemies.

[@deakalandadze1831]

This sounds incredible and should be a soundtrack for a movie for sure.

[@themax_rblx7666]

Yesss

[@ZAFFIRO2005]

Listen to Davy Jones theme

[@CALL_ME_WE-A]

oh god no stop you think movies are nice??

[@jjqne]

this piece FLAWLESSLY encapsulates the 'enemies to lovers' trope. like, wow. gobsmacked with how amazing this is.

[@Dana-cg5fo]

I learned this song by ear because no one had any tutorials and now watching this I had the majority of the notes correct on my own 🥲❤

[@gilgamesh7547]

bro he plays 11 notes same time you cant learn it by ear

[@Sizzlesubs]

They could have learned a simple version that didn’t have all the other notes, although I have no idea after all the later parts are definitely impossible to learn by ear.

[@fhernok]

exactly. He’s using a lot of instruments but there are ways to just learn the piano version. I bought the sheet myself, even though i wont be learning it anytime soon because i’m still sort of intermediate, but there are ways to learn it

[@fhernok]

@@Sizzlesubsit’s also just overlapping different kinds of classical instruments over top of the piano. If he was playing this on a synth which i thInK hE iS, then i’d assume that’s how it was composed

[@anikatasnimbhuiyan7184]

Imagining the actions, and plot with the music tune; is what makes it truly more interesting. .

Why can i see the fricking music video of 2 spies trying to beat each other in the most elegant ways during a fancy party till ending up dancing in the crowd togheter in the night as they revolve and end up on the edge of the glass roof, both in danger and a risk... They kiss

[@JopocaJ]

Oh WOW this hit me hard, this is the type of music that makes me just stare into nothing, only my ears are focused. Amazing

[@grunclesteve4045]

The beginning melody has the same vibe as Davy Jones theme

[@makorpirka8210]

DAMN YES

[@Kedustrolder]

The whole dynamic too, and cello part from the other musics of pirate of the Caribbeans, still a nice song tho

[@farhatamnan3736]

I think we can safely say Joshua took a big inspiration from Davy Jone's melody to write his leitmotif. Like, it's unironically too similar.

[@Alcyonidus]

This is the first time I've been moved to tears after listening to an orchestral waltz, thank you for introducing me to that new feeling!

[@marimelbello2066]

This one will always be my favourite piece of yours!

[@user-xs6zp6ih5b]

Great song! The entry resembles a lot with the theme song of Davy Jones in ''Pirates of the Caribbean''.

[@zeynepsaglam-x1]

I guess thats why they call some people mastermind.This is work of pure art.

[@april3063]

Woahhh sangat mengagumkan! saat pertama kali mendengarkan ini saya terhanyut terbawa arus hingga ke suatu tempat yang indah di dunia lain. Betapa ajaibnya instrumen ini saya seperti mendengarkan sebuah dongeng romansa,,, menyampaikan sebuah perasaan dengan melody yang sangat sangat indah, sangat luar biasa! Maaf jika komentar ku terlihat sedikit aneh tapi ini yang aku rasakan saat mendengarkannya. Sangat mengagumkan~~

[@melodem]

C'est juste parfait, ça mérite beaucoup plus de visibilité

[@ohseungmine]

this is the piece that made me turn into your fan omg. ever since then i started listening to all of your masterpieces and i swear you're a literal musical genius! i always imagine this everytime i listen to this piece: theres a huge masquerade ball and the mc is dancing passionately with the enemy but they both dont know whos behind the masks.

[@gunny-ex7vs]

[@jehigo5040]

[@phoeniixholmes6170]

I am absolutely in love with this piece, it makes me feel the romance by just listening to it

[@Thtaoy1029]

This sounds like a mix of Davy Jones' Theme, Merry-Go-Round of Life from Howl's Moving Castle, and Zangeroku by Kuroki Nagisa

enemies to lovers reminds me of me and an "almost" lover (so i think i usually think of lovers to enemies-), theres a lot of things that happened and me and him being together is just not possible (for many reasons). he said he doesnt like me anymore when i asked him about it and i lied saying i dont either but i still do. we're both just avoiding each other now and he definitely probably hates me now i think im still in contact with his weirdo (in a good way-) cousin that teases him a lot about me and suddenly told me "He loves you!" and left without an explanation
